A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 74 Really ? Calliopes eyes lit up instantly .

Really .

A broad smile spread across her face , and in a burst of joy , Calliope threw her arms around Silas and planted a spontaneous kiss on his cheek .

After realizing what she had done , she pulled back , a little embarrassed .

You should go find your friends .

Mine are waiting for me too ! After that , she dashed back to her room .

Silas touched his cheek , a gentle smile playing on his lips .

He watched the door swing shut behind her , not needing to say anything more .

The gloom hed felt all evening vanished with that unexpected kiss , lifting his spirits entirely .

She always had this inexplicable ability to make him happy .

With a smile still tugging at his lips , Silas returned to his own group .

As he walked back into the room , his friends couldnt help but tease him upon seeing his return .

Mr.

Myers , you just stepped out for a moment and came back all sunshine and rainbows ! First time seeing Silas in such a good mood ! Silas , whats the scoop ? Nothing much , Silas replied , his handsome face settling back into a more neutral expression .

Mind your own business and just have fun ! Alright .

Meanwhile , back in hér room , Calliope was met with Archies intense gaze .

Why are you so afraid of him ? Does he treat you poorly ? Archie asked , concern etched in his features .

What ? No , no ! Calliope hurried to explain .

Hes always been like an elder to everyone .

Who wouldnt be a little intimidated ? Its just how it is .

Really ? If he ever hurts you , you have to tell me .

Archie lowered his gaze , knowing he wasnt strong enough yet .

But one day , he promised himself , hed be strong enough to protect her ..

Okay , I will .

Calliope smiled softly , her voice gentle .

They spent the evening eating , drinking , and chatting until it was quite late .

As they stepped out of the room , they bumped into Uriah and Silas .

The two men , looking sharp in their suits , seemed to be waiting for them .

Come here , Silas gestured to Calliope .

She jogged over to him .

Mavis , let me give you a ride home , Uriah said to Mavis .

Okay , Mavis nodded , bidding goodbye to Portia and the others before following Uriah .

Silas glanced briefly at Archie , then at Portia .

Archie , you take Portia home , alright ? Were heading out ! Calliope said , giving Archie a playful wink .

Sure , Archie agreed .

With an arm around Calliopes waist , Silas led her out .

But he just sighed , turning to Portia .

Lets go , Ill walk you home .

Portia draped an arm around his neck , laughing .

No need , Ive got my own ride coming ! She playfully pinched Archies cheek .

Sweetie , you should really find yourself a partner .

Youre the only single one left ! Oh look , theres my darling now .

Bye bye ! With a bit of a tipsy giggle , Portia ran over to a young guy waiting outside , clinging to him like a koala .

Archie stood there for a moment , hands in his pockets , before he slowly sauntered out of the club .

Outside , the night was deep , and as he stepped out , he caught sight of Gideon drunkenly making some antics .
